What in the world is going on with this guy? I’m serious, is he high? I typically wouldn’t post something on the blog that could be viewed as ‘promotional’ for another team…but, this guy comes off as so unintelligent and so immature that I kinda have to post it to call attention to it. When […]
UNC-CH
Sunday’s salt in the wound – NC State, Phil Ford article in N&O
I know that the timing of News & Observer’s string of articles around the 40th anniversary of NC State’s 1974 National Championship Basketball this morning was pre-determined…nonetheless, this one focusing on the shift of power really stung. Despite the torture it created for me this morning it is worth reading; particularly for our younger audience. […]
CBS’s Doyel crushes UNC-Cheat: “Maybe the ugliest academic scandal in NCAA history”
The hits just a keep on coming as the national media FINALLY wakes up to I didn’t think it could get much better than this. I was wrong. CBS’s Gregg Doyel tweeted today that he is mad at himself for ignoring the UNC academic fraud scandal and that he wouldn’t ignore it any longer. He […]
NCSU is not alone in our disgust at the Duke/UNC double standard
Other people are beginning to tire of the obvious “kid glove” treatment Duke and UNC have been receiving by the ACC. It is a subject that has been discussed on our blog many, many times. In this article in the Augusta Free Press, Chris Graham makes many of the same observations we have made. […]
N&O Editorial About UNC Scandal
John Drescher, Executive Editor of the News & Observer, wrote an editorial Saturday about the questions that should’ve been asked by the Faculty Council last week…but weren’t. When UNC-Chapel Hill Chancellor Holden Thorp appeared before the Faculty Council last week to discuss investigations into the Tar Heel football program, the scene was set for the […]
Doyel: Butch Davis has to be fired; UNC is a ‘floating turd’
Although we aren’t the biggest fans of this former local sports writer, he is one of the first journalists – local or national – calling for Butch’s head on platter. It is a scathing article. Full article here. If only North Carolina could forfeit the rest of the season. That’s what North Carolina deserves. That’s […]
A Different View of Silence
I’m often amused by commentaries that wander along the path of facts, speculation, assumptions, and theories with the goal of reaching an ultimate conclusion. All too often, they get lost somewhere along the way and end up in Oz rather than at a logical conclusion. Caulton Tudor attempted this journey but got lost today as […]
R&R: News and Observer Missing Golden Opportunity
If you listened closely, you probably heard an odd buzz floating through the air around the state of North Carolina yesterday. I know that I contributed to it. What you were hearing was the elevated voices of the collective non-UNC-graduates in the area expressing their astonishment with what greeted them in their Sunday newspapers (followed […]
FEB ’10: Black Santa accused by recruit of illegal payments in Chapel Hill
In the wake of major news that the NCAA is currently investigating the University of North Carolina’s football program, we thought it would be an appropriate time to highlight a major thread from our message boards from February of this year. (And, also promote this as a reason why we ask you to bookmark our […]
UNC hoping for 20,000 fans Saturday
One year removed from having no more than 2,000 fans at its Spring Game, officials in Chapel Hill are hoping to draw as many as 20,000 for this year’s game. Being on ESPN can’t hurt, but will 20,000 Holes really make it out to Kenan Saturday to watch TJ Yates (and every other UNC QB) […]
